A Foodie's Journey to Weight Loss :)

Friday, April 6, 2012

Falling in love with yourself is probably one of the best things anyone could ever do. ;)

Next month is the year anniversary of dukan for me and I am overjoyed by how much I love life! I love it all! The ups, the downs, the sideways because somehow I have learned that it is all equally important and keeps balance in my life.

I feel like I'm just learning who I am for the first time and I realized that I can now say something I never quite understood when others would say it:

I love me!

With unconditional love that is. I have always liked who I am, my dorky, over the top, silly self. But there were days I would look in the mirror and be so dang hard on myself. Why would I treat others better than myself? Why would I say some of the nastiest things about my body?

I realized that no matter where I am in my journey, I love me. Deeply. Fully. Truly. And that makes the ride SOOO much more enjoyable. I can't stop smiling. :)

I hope you all have a great holiday weekend! I love yall!

Oh! P.S. I made a video yesterday that is up on youtube. I'll post it below. Muah! <3

Ever since my grandma got sick, I haven't been able to put my best foot forward in my weight loss journey, and since she passed away last month I feel as if I am now able to refocus. I know that's what she would want me to do.

I joined a gym with my papa who is also doing the challenge, and it's a great bonding thing for us to do! Our workouts have been great so far and he is down a ton of weight! I'm so proud! :)

Well...I'm off to do some pilates and clean and such...I'll talk to yall later!

Perhaps if I get hungry later I'll make crepes...just one of those days ha! Thank God that Dukan is 'all you can eat' otherwise I would be starving. :) ♥

I recalculated my true weight again to see my 'graph' and in four months I should be at my true weight. That will be a complete year about...AH! So excited! Time flies when you're dropping pounds :) <3
